The MX track is fun but the enduro loop is pretty tame and I got bored of it by the 3rd time around. Still worth a go though.

Theres tracks in there which are un marked / hidden which are much better than the main track. Just need someone to show you where they are.

Tame is what we are after. We are old and break easy.

It would suit you fine for sure, but flyingcr250 might find it a bit boring, as he's pretty good from what I can tell.

Interested in those hidden trails though...

Personally I quite like the place.

Like others said before, avoid when wet if you're after an easy ride. There's B tracks which might suit you fora nice easy ride. A for when you feel more adventurous.

A little ill-maintained at times, but hardly a big deal.
Here's some footage showing bits if B but mostly A, after some heavy rain.

Good tyres and low pressure reccommended if you do go in the wet.

Would you spend a day there? Or is it a half day thing?

Cool vid.

ive been told my back tyre is old and hard so would struggle with wet. So will wait for a dry day and race me mates. My good mate has a bike thats pretty much the same power as mine so there will be some fun had.
